Yemeni Presidential Leadership Council member visits frontlines in Taiz

The Trades Union Congress (TUC) in Ghana has urged for significant changes to the Council of State, proposing a cap on the number of presidential appointees. The union wants the President to be limited to appointing no more than five members to this body, arguing that the current situation, where presidential appointees dominate, hinders the Council's effectiveness and responsiveness to citizens' needs.

TUC spokesperson noted that while the Council of State is a valuable institution, its current composition, with too many presidential appointees, is detrimental to its ability to meet public expectations. The TUC is advocating for a review of the Council's composition, particularly in relation to Article 89(2) of the proposed constitutional reforms, which discusses the makeup of the Council.
